Success with build #68 creating allycat.vhd from MiSTer FPGA.

NML32

I get this error when running from MiSTer root@MiSTer:/media/fat/doscontainer # ./doscontainer build allycat.yaml ./doscontainer: /lib/libc.so.6: version GLIBC_2.32' not found (required by ./doscontainer) ./doscontainer: /lib/libc.so.6: version GLIBC_2.33' not found (required by ./doscontainer) ./doscontainer: /lib/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.34' n...

Confirmed working on Windows 10
Used doscontainer.exe windows_x86_64

Finally! PC-DOS 2.00 boots cleanly in PCem using nothing but the latest build of DOSContainer to create a VHD. This means you can pull the executable from my FTP server (build 59, currently in progress) and combine it with a simple testing YAML. I'm still quite a distance away from creating and filling subdirectories on these disks, but this is a ...

[SOLVED!]

Big thanks to all you wizards! NML32 hooked me up with a hint: disable the parallel port

that fixed it!!!

Cool, I'm glad you got it working.

I can confirm this worked for me. Thank you for the workaround. :) Ok I think I got it work without needing to use 64_Term... Settings as before... Bootup Habitat Disk 1 Enter Name and press F7 to enter Terminal type in atbaud1200 and press Enter then at&k0 and press Enter (that's a Zero)....you may get an OK response then atdthabitat.themade.o...

No matter how many configurations and attempts I tried, I couldn't "dial out" from within Habitat. I can dial out with CCGMS, but once you reset, the connection is also reset. So, I finally got it working but it requires the use of the original C64 Term program from Commodore. You can find it here first on list... Just like with your set...

@Flandango When I boot up Habitat disk 1 and enter my name then F7 to enter the Terminal screen and type atdthabitat.themade.org:1986 (might have to do it a few times). I don't hear the dial out until I continue disk one load. A long time ago I would hear the dial out from the Terminal window. Then when it't time to load disk #2 it never seems to f...

I really like this project. As of now, I've made a little over 100 DOS VHDs using the DOSContainer script. Now, if I could only get the VHDs to load correctly using a TapTo NFC.
Has anyone had any success loading an ao486 VHD using TapTo NFCs?

I haven't had any luck getting Beneath a Steel Sky Floppy version to work. I've tried with different memory settings. Either I get an error when launching sky.exe. Error 16 bit code too large or just a frozen screen. I know the install files are good, as I was able to load the game on my DOS 7.1 and DOS 8.0 VHDs. My DOS 8 uses QEMM memory manager. ...

I managed to code the requested feature just now. Builds of the existing set of games seem to be working just fine. You can now add an additional parameter to the YAML files called "emm386params". Specify a string there, and it will be added behind EMM386.EXE/SYS. The assumption here is that you know what you're doing when you need this ...

@Bas
Call of Cthulhu - Shadow of the Comet needs DEVICEHIGH=C:\DOS\EMM386.exe i=e000-efff D=48
Is there a way to add custom settings to EMM386? I'm trying to add D=48 to the EMM386 line.

Thanks.

Is there a breakdown of the settings used for each a0486 CPU Preset?
I'd like to use sysctl.exe to set the CPU to match some of the presets.

Oh and I just pushed Space Quest IV floppy edition to the archive as well, those are ready for testing on MiSTer for anyone who feels so inclined. I won't be in tomorrow, so I'd like to take this moment to wish all of you a wonderful 2024! Both versions of SQ IV option number 2 and 6 give an error "Unable to initialize your music hardware.&qu...

Cool, thanks! I'm aiming to keep the originals in there as well so if you upload please make sure the names don't clash. There's also a German language version of this game that It'll be packaging based on your working config. I tried Future Wars - Adventures in Time built with your yaml with DOS401 and L1 cache disabled. The game locks up during ...

Had a brainfart from my younger days.. added Future Wars - Adventures in Time to the list. It's ready for testing on MiSTer, bit glitchy on PCEm right now.

For me, Future Wars hangs at booting DOS.

Kudos to @RealLarry for creating a whole bunch of game configurations! They're in the repo:

Thank you for the additions.

I packaged a CD-ROM version that seems to be working, as in: I can wander around, get into the lighthouse, see a few videos and get killed by a rather disturbingly large bird.. ftp://ftp.area536.com/doscontainer/testbuilds/rtzork-cd.zip It contains both a VHD and an ISO that need to be mounted at the same time.

I watched a video by Michael MJD showing off a cool project called "Windows Update Restored" (Windows Update website) for Windows 9x machines.

This might be of interest to someone. Printing from Windows 9x to a home networked printer. I set up printing to my Wireless Brother MFC-7860DW laser printer.
This worked on my MiSTer Windows 95, 98, and Me image.

I'm also enjoying the NFC script. Thank you!! Would it be possible to run scripts from the NFC Tag? Glad to hear it :D You can run system commands with it: https://github.com/wizzomafizzo/mrext/blob/main/docs/nfc.md#command Perhaps in the future I can add an option to enable those written to cards. If you mean launch from the scripts menu like tha...

Great work with the NFC script!
Is there a way to send a command to switch ini file via NFC?
It would be great to be able to switch ini with a card if I switch TV.

Sure! Cool idea. I'll include a custom command to do that

I'm also enjoying the NFC script. Thank you!!

I sent you a PM.

Would it be possible to have the OSD button support the PCXT and ao486 cores? Those cores require Win+F12 to open the OSD.

NML32

This would be a very welcomed addition to the Commodore cores.
